Prince Naseem vs Yuroirkas Gamboa at featherweight

[creekrat77]

Prince Naseem vs Yuroirkas Gamboa at featherweight. Who do yall think would win? I'd say Naseem might fight too unorthodox for Gamboa but then again Gamboa has great foot work and hand speed. I don't remember Naseem's weight when he rehydrated at featherweight but I'm sure Gamboa has a pretty large size advantage.

Gamboa would be too fast and would starch prince in about 4 or 5 rounds,,,

Just a bad style matchup for prince who won his fights with speed and power and gamboa IMO is faster and more powerful..

It could go either way, but I'd pick Hamed here. His resume craps all over Gamboa's. If he gets out of the early rounds I think Naz times him coming in and KO's the Cuban.

Gamboa might have the edge boxing but I don't think he could take Hamed's heavy hands!

have to disagree with gamboa being more powerfull. hamed had sick power bt struggled to land it as his speed and skills waned later on. shame is hamed peaked way before he came to america nd got his defining fight way too late ( barrera) thanks to warrens tyipical promoting style.

It would be a knockdownfest. I think Yuri would win though. A fun fight to watch.

Close one I think
I think naz would take it though, his power would be the edge

Really don't know how to rate Nas. He seemed to have it all but decline set in ridiculously early with him.

The Nas that beat Robinson for the WBO belt wasn't just fast, heavy handed and unorthodox, he was also very elusive. But he got so used to knocking out his opponents he became over reliant on his power and neglected his defensive skills. By the time he fought MAB he was already half the fighter he used to be and he was only in his mid-20's!

I could say that 1995-96 Nas had the skills to beat Gamboa, but I don't know. He had certainly never fought anyone anywhere near as good as Gamboa at that point.

Pick em fight. IMO if hamed was settled and boxed a bit more careful he wins, if he gets too careless he might get knocked out.
